Top Secret Visit
The Needles Landmark Attraction的点评
点评：When visiting the Isle of Wight the iconic Needles is a must do. Not only is it one of the geographical wonders of Southern Britain, it is also steeped in military history.
The views are superb. The historic batteries are also worth a visit. The Lower( Old) battery is one of Palmerston's forts which began its construction in 1861. It was part of a chain of fortifications to protect Southern Britain from hostile naval attacks. After exploring this defence position. You can move further up the headland and check out the New (Upper) Battery. This began construction circa 1893. Both batteries were utilised during both World Wars. However, the most intriguing part of the tour in my humble opinion was the secret rocket test site. From 1955 the site was used to develop rockets. It was here that Black Night and Black Arrow were tested. As you walk around the installations you discover the secrets of the project which employed over 250 personal which were stationed at the Needles. I must admit I knew nothing about the secret rocket installation. A very interesting and rewarding visit. Excellent knowledgeable National trust guides, stunning views and a historical journey back through time.

翻译：游览怀特岛时，标志性的“针峰”绝对不可错过。它不仅是英国南部的地理奇观之一，还承载着深厚的军事历史。
这里的景色极为迷人。那些历史悠久的炮台也值得一访。下炮台（旧炮台）便是帕默斯顿所建的堡垒之一，始建于1861年。它属于当时为防御敌方海军袭击而修建的防御工事链的一部分。在参观完这一防御阵地后……你可以继续沿着海角前行，去看看新（上部）炮台。该炮台的建设工程始于1893年左右。这两座炮台在第一次世界大战和第二次世界大战期间均曾被使用。不过，以我拙见，这次参观中最吸引人的地方还要数那个秘密火箭测试基地。自1955年起，该地便被用于火箭研发工作。“Black Night”和“Black Arrow”这两枚火箭就是在这里进行测试的。漫步于各个设施之间，你会逐渐揭开这个项目的神秘面纱——该项目动用了250多名人员共同在“The Needles”地区开展工作。必须承认，我此前对这个秘密火箭设施一无所知。这是一次非常有趣且收获颇丰的参观体验。国家信托基金的导游知识渊博、介绍精彩，这里的景色也令人惊叹，仿佛能带领人们穿越时空、领略历史风貌。
